Deputy President William Ruto on Sunday asked Kenyans to ignore enemies of unity and focus on ensuring that the country remains united.
Speaking in reference to an attack at his Sugoi home in Eldoret, the DP noted that he was not worried about visitors visiting his home as he was protected by God.
"I know you all know that I had visitors in my home yesterday but I am not worried. I want everybody to know I believe in God and that nothing can happen to me," DP Ruto stated.
The DP further requested Kenyans not be distracted by such acts adding that there were some ill minded people in the country whose main objective is to interfere with the progress being made in the nation.
"Our country is in the hands of God and we will make progress. The machinations of our enemies will amount to nothing," he mentioned.
DP Ruto made the remarks in Murang'a County during the enthronement of Bishop Timothy Irungu Gichere of the ACK, Diocese of Mount Kenya Central.
Earlier own, the DP in a tweet condoned with the family of one of the deceased soldiers and wished a quick recovery to the injured one.
Condolences to the family of the gallant soldier Joseph Makembo, who died in line of duty and quick recovery to Allan Rotich.

Your bravery, courage and care of duty will be honoured. Those whose mission is to create fear, despondency and division will be defeated.
